Hi @Nick4344 HbA1c is meassured both in mmol/mol and in percentages. A double digit percentage is not good! :) Here's more http://www.diabetes.co.uk/what-is-hba1c.html Cheers

Hi, I have been unable to find any online shops that sell the PenMate. Any links, anyone? Thanks

Libre is a great piece of equipment. Maybe not as accurate as I would like it to be, or not as advanced as the dexcom's sensors, but it surely makes life easier and more predictable. I buy the sensors for my son. Thanks to the libre, we now know how he reacts to different foods. The patterns...

Hi, Though you might have a most noble idea, unless people know what it is, in the broadest sense possible, they can not identify themselves with it, and will not offer the best advice. As with any other patent, I guess there is a procedure, might be costly, and again if you wish to apply for...

Thanks, @tim2000s Yes, six months since diagnosis, I guess he is deep into his honeymoon. Taking as little as 1 unit of insulin 4 times a day. However, his antibodies test came negative, so there might he a chance he's not actually type 1, but MODY, if I haven't been misguided. Anyways, waiting...

Thank yiu @Daibell

Hi, My son's blood test results just came in. Meeting endo tomorrow, but I am so anxious to see what these results mean. I think these are fine results, but I need some confirmation. I will list the results from the time of diagnosis, 6 months ago and today's ones. January...

Hi @Sl1990 If he tends to be high, then I think you are sending him the right food. Happy to share our routine, but my son is rarely high when in school, so this might not be very helpful for you. 2 snacks at school, one in the morning, one in the afternoon. At school, they are quite active...

Seven Hours Of Utmost Torture UTMOST

@Natt Thanks for asking! My son is doing great, school is fun, he is often involved in dance or theater shows that the school organises, he attends an afternoon IT course twice a week, and just the other day he told me wanted to go back to play football, which he stopped because the coach had...

Hi @Natt and welcome to this forum. My son, now 11, was diagnosed in January. I joined this forum shortly after, and all members here have been very helpful and supportive in many ways. We all experience similar fears and face similar challenges. As long as we share them we can help each other...

End of July is 2 months from now. I wouldn't be able to wait this long. If you are uncertain about the effectiveness of the insulin, or the doses, and you if you do not want to experiment with the doses, you might try to cut down on the carb intake and see where that takes you. There's...

Eradicate xhenofobia - cultivate exemplary liberty SPORT

Hi @Ashcar25 and welcome to the forum. My son, 11 years old, is on his fourth libre sensor now. At first he was skeptical about it. He feared reactions from other kids. We do not try to hide his diabetes, he has always taken BG measurements in class, taken insulin in class, so all kids are aware...

Done! Good luck!

deliberately ignoring everything they say ROUND

From what I have read on this forum, people are quite happy with their libre and accept its faults, but such drastic difference in the readings is not helpful. Might be an issue with the sensor, if you want you can report the issue to abbott, they will respond within three days. As I understand...
